Area Rug Cleaning in Throgs Neck, Bronx

Throgs Neck homes with hardwood or tile floors often have rugs in every main room, plus a runner by the back door that leads out to the yard or the deck. Those rugs catch sand, grass clippings, dog hair and the damp that comes in on wet shoes.

Near the water, rugs can also pick up a musty smell, especially in a basement or a sunroom that is closed up for the winter. A surface cleaning on the floor will not fix that. It takes a full wash and a proper dry.

We pick the rugs up from your house, take them to our plant, and bring them back clean and dry. Pickup and delivery are free.

Every rug is checked for fiber and dye before washing. Then it is dusted to shake out the sand and grit packed into the base, which in a beach-side home can be a surprising amount.

The wash goes through the whole rug, front to back. That is what removes the deep dirt, the salt and the odors that a vacuum leaves behind.

Musty smells come from moisture trapped in the backing. After washing, the rug is dried completely in a controlled room, so it comes home smelling clean instead of damp.

Dogs that swim or play at the water and then lie on the rug leave both hair and a strong smell. Pet areas get an enzyme treatment during the wash, and we tell you if any stain has set.

Sunrooms and enclosed porches are popular in Throgs Neck houses, and rugs in those rooms fade in the strong light off the water. Cleaning will not restore faded color, but it removes the dull layer of dirt and lets the remaining color show.

Hand-knotted or antique rugs get gentler handling; see Throgs Neck oriental rug cleaning for that process.
